This study tested a new type of implantable defibrillator (EV ICD) in 14 Japanese patients with dangerous heart rhythms. The device is placed outside the heart and blood vessels to deliver a shock if a life-threatening fast heartbeat occurs. The main goals were to check safety (n…

This study tested whether giving magnesium sulfate and fentanyl before inserting a breathing tube can prevent sudden rises in blood pressure and heart rate in surgical patients aged 50 and older. 76 participants were randomly assigned to receive magnesium alone, fentanyl alone, o…

This study tested whether giving remifentanil (a fast-acting painkiller) during emergency breathing tube placement could prevent a dangerous spike in heart rate. 75 fragile patients who needed rapid intubation received one of two doses of remifentanil. The goal was to see if it s…

This study tested two drugs, lignocaine and dexmedetomidine, to see which better prevents sudden rises in heart rate and blood pressure when a breathing tube is inserted during anesthesia. 62 adults having elective surgery took part. The goal is to find a safer way to protect pat…

This study checked if a computer program called ZywieAI can correctly analyze heart rhythm data collected from a wearable sensor worn on the chest for 24 hours. 153 adults wore the sensor, and the algorithm's findings were compared to reviews by heart doctors. The goal was to see…

This study checked if special heart devices (pacemakers and defibrillators) are safe during strong 3.0 Tesla MRI scans. 64 people with these devices had an MRI and were followed for one month. The goal was to see if any serious problems happened because of the MRI.
